Afternoon Tea

Afternoon tea is traditionally a light meal composed of sandwiches and savories, followed by scones with clotted cream and jam, and ending with sweet pastries. Everything is bite-sized and eaten with fingers.


The concept of afternoon tea started in England in the 1840s when The Duchess of Bedford wanted a small bite between lunch and dinner. Nowadays it is enjoyed by everyone and is a particularly lovely way to treat someone on a special occasion.
